Idk about you but I have 50k minutes this year with 1 artist

Unless you're exclusively into mainstream music, dump the Spotify and get on platforms like Bandcamp and Soundcloud. Pandora is pretty good, too, if you only do streaming. Bandcamp is my #1 go-to for discovering new music and artists. And they have certain Fridays during the year when 100% of earnings go to the artist.

This video is just rascit

Nah, working from home is a waste of resources

Essentially Rich people buy stuff to feel good because they can afford their own comfort Poor people buy stuff to look good, because they can’t

Who cares what people wear or buy. Some poor people can afford LV & don't like Walmart purses. You don't know nothing about them financially. 🤔House loan, car loan etc. Most people will not share that with you; because 10 Commandments: don't be jealous of what others have.

There's no point reasoning. Either the employees or the employers get their way or something inbetween. That's literally how a free market works. It has nothing to do with values, its all lipservice. As employees we want the best deal for us. For employers they want the best deal for them. Let it play out however it does even if both sides are disingenuous.

In the west a teacher can save up and sacrifice and buy a gucci handbag after some time, in developing countries a teachers salary can’t save up that amount, so the rich are the ones that own this label

This quiet luxury thing is only in the west, I’m from a developing country, wealthy people dress in loud brands, there isn’t much old money around so they are the first generation, where I’m from people who wear gucci are generally not forcing it and do have the money, unlike in the west where an average person can sacrifice and get a $3000 handbag, where I’m from a normal person can’t sacrifice that. Amount even if they tried

I don't know man, I'm a business owner and I prefer my guys in the office. Its more collaborative and active.

Let's see net worth 253.000.000 dollar net 2744600 dollar , so i m rich , and yes i dont splendor money on hypercars , mansions, and jewelry and before anyone comment no i don't come from money

I have an income of six figures annually and look like I just crawled out of a dumpster. If you care about what others think, go back to the drawing board.

I use Apple Music and I kid you not, I have only used the recommended songs like once I primarily find music from movies, shows and video games I like or songs I hear IRL and not ones I get recommended Also 6:45 FNAF MOVIE

So all these women are giving up for free , while these dating apps companies are making money of these 304s ... its like pimping with a 100 percent profit .

for older people like me, eharmony works .... but it is f***ing expensive.

Just as productive is a lie.

Bro doesn't know what inflation is.

And now it's even worse! Literally EVERYTHING REQUIRES IT!! Like you can't even breathe without em!

Reminds me when I used to wear a fake rolex to Vegas, everyone thought it was real.....my clothing was strait wal-mart but the middle class players thought I was a high roller......if I really was, I would not be sitting at the same table as you............I had a buddy that found a rolex in a airport bathroom, he thought it was real and used to wear it all the time....until he found out it was fake and trashed it ... I was like why did you trash it and he was like, cause it is fake .... I was like, you didn't know that and you wore it so what is the difference???? btw, the fake watch I had kept better time than any rolex because it has Japanese parts in it..... rolex watch suck at keeping time......they are terrible.

I see point in the video but i still disagree withs what was said

I've never had Spotify, and I only interact with it when I'm at like a house party with my friends and they all use it. I have to say, I hate its UI, it is deliberately designed badly. I also listen to many, many songs that aren't even on Spotify. I have my own music collection, which I personally gathered throughout the years, and I'm very proud of it, and it is a part of me. And let me tell you, you don't need Spotify, to find new music. Like that's the first thing everyone says to me when I bring up that I hate this platform and they are defending it. I am discovering new music all the time, without Spotify.

This video is literally misleading and stupid everyone is different some like clothes some like cars some like home decor Fashion is everything and no ppl don't hide they wealth because you can't hide wealth What's the point of working my way up from poverty and wearing bullshit What's the point of Getting money and it buying the clothes of my dreams My main motivation in life is my wardrobe If Rich ppl don't wear what I wear who gives AF Money doesnt look like anything I can still be rich and wear what I like This video is an excuse for ppl who dont know how to dress to make themselves feel better If what you're saying is true they would be out of business You lookign at charts and not reality I cut it off when you said "Overpriced Air Jordan sneakers in the African American community" like buying sneakers is stopping someone from wating I can't take you seriously

i wont listen to any playlist unless its my own. ive listened to a playlist spotify made maybe once (that i can remember). for the whole of 2023 and most of 2024 ive been using youtube for music (not youtube music) and it was better than spotify in some cases. Spotify has deleted a few of the songs that i listen to. But on youtube, if a video was taken down, i could just search up another video with the exact song. another good thng about youtube was that i could skip as many times as i wanted!!! i think we should go back to physical music if it makes the artists more money.

I can not tell if you like Elon or you don't from this video, if you are going to make a argument, you need to stick to it.

Idk I feel like a lot of this is a stretch, and it’s contradicting itself. For example you state that smaller artists are struggling while using Spotify, because they can’t make much when using the platform, but you also state that Spotify will encourage the listeners to listen to a more verity of songs. And not just one album. Isn’t that healthy for smaller artists? Also we live in a capitalist economy. If it was so bad competition would be rising. There is Apple Music, and pandora. But Apple Music doesn’t recommend many songs in comparison, and pandora only recommends songs. Also maybe I haven’t gotten far enough into the video. (I’m 12 mins in) but the only issue to the listeners is the hike up on price to consorts? I don’t feel like that too horrible. Once again I believe capitalism will fix that. If people don’t wana go to pricy stuff then they will have to drop the price somehow.

As someone who has never worked in an office, I'd rather work in an office. Want to keep that work-life separation.

That's why I pirate a version of Spotify to get basically premium features

Do what you want. Wear what you want. Enjoy your life. Do not listening those who say you doing wrong.

I just want to say that according to my banker anyone with a network of 10M USD in liquid asset is considered high net worth individuals aka rich. So pls define what rich and poor first.

I agree with most of what you're saying, but not with the whole "mood playlists bad, only listening to albums front to back is better". Maybe it's because I grew up with spotify and that's the only way of listening to music I have really experienced, but I don't see the problem with it. I create mood playlists because certain moods or feels that songs have helps me to proces my feelings and emotions. That would be impossible if I only listened to music with vinyls and cds (altough I do own vinyls of my favourite bands) because I can't listen to one specific song, I'll have to listen to every song that comes before it on the album as well. And if I just really hate one or a few specific songs on an album, but really like the rest, I'll just have to sit through the bad songs if I want to listen to the good ones, it's much better just to be able to skip them easily. I also don't think the comparison of taking similair movie scenes from different movies and putting them in a compilation is a very good one because the main point of a movie is to tell a story, of course albums can tell stories too, but lot's of them don't sometimes individual songs tell stories. There's multiple reasons for consuming pretty much all forms of art, and for music it is (for almost all people I think) mainly just the sound, so how enjoyable it is to listen to. Whilst for movies that is mainly telling a story, so having a playlists of similair songs from different albums/bands makes more sense than having a compilation of similair scenes from different movies because the main point of the music is getting enjoyment out of the sound, while watching a compilation of scenes from different movies would feel more out of place because those scenes don't make any sense without the context rest of the movie. Of course music can also be about telling a story and you can watch movies for visuals, and those things can be someone's favourite part about a certain movie or piece of music. But what I mean by "the main point" is that even if an album tells an incredible story, if the music sucks you won't listen to it, yet if the music is really good, but the story is bad, you probably will stil listen to it. And even if the visuals of a movie are amazing, if the story sucks and makes no sense, you probaby won't watch it either, again the opposite if it's the other way around. The "non-main points" are easier to ignore, so if they aren't good it's not a problem. Also I will continue using spotify just because it is incredibly easy to see all your stats and everything which I find incredibly interessting and comforting

As my own boss working from my home it make me feel so happy about my life choice

For someone like me who has close to 10k mins of listening music on Spotify, I never(most of the time I meant) relied on playlist made by others. I have my own playlists(around 5 - 7) which has a specific subject in mind. For example, I have a playlist for Lofi music which I curated myself, and I rarely relied on Spotify's own algorithm for discovering music, maybe in some cases(eg., 15-20% of the time). And for the songs that I haven't discovered myself, were mostly suggested by my friends who also used Spotify. I understand the base of the conversation where people need to by albums or just a single track to be able to listen to any form of music and that Spotify's way of doing things is unsustainable. But if people pay for every single song they listen to or even paying more to discover new song/artists, what would someone from a relatively underdeveloped country do who doesn't have the ease of access to music that Spotify provides apart from pirating songs? I'm not saying that Spotify is all sunshine & roses. It is indeed unsustainable but what else can people do, who don't have a strong financial background?

I got halfway through the video to find this was also anti-WFH propoganda. Not sure what its gonna take to get it through CEOs heads. Offices are dead tech. Obsolete. They became obsolete the day high speed internet became a thing. Can everybody work from home? No, of course not. But 90% of workers that did office work can. Nearly 100% of our job requires a computer and an internet connection

If you dont play, you cant listen to an album properly.

It seems like it only played the same 10-15 songs over and over. I’m going to unsubscribe.

At home i sometimes have less focus due to fact i have plenty of distractions available. But i like the privacy it gives me. If i can do all the things in a day at home i'm more happy to do it from home.

The real rich people, act like smart governments, they accumulate gold, land and business equipment.

Making people who can wfh work at their home will make it easier commute for people who can’t (manufacturing, service industries) easier

Its huge of Musk talking about morals

Reality is yes and no - if your company has very good project management Systems and staff that actually follow them - yes, remote work if great. But if you have no structure and bad management - it will cause only more slacking and procrastination of your staff.

Spotify does nothing for the average artist. They are exploiting art and musicians are enabling this exploitation. They push a concentration of artists who are under the labels who bought them and then try claim integrity laws to undermine the average artist. F*ck Spotify and streaming services. #scarecrowzw

consumers will never be the losers. if spotify didnt exist everyone would be pirating

Just a big PsyOp and traumatizing society

i love the Silicon Valley clips

2:28 Imma be honest... my vibes ARE listening straight through an entire album and I feel lucky that my favourite artists put the work in to make me feel that way. Tysm to Charlie Puth, Imagine Dragons, TOP, BMTH, and Chase Atlantic.

0:21 It's rich coming from a guy who spends his workday shit posting.

I used to suffer severely from sick building syndrome. It's where the air conditioning would circulate everyone's sickness all through the building. During WFH never got sick once.

Nah, i'd use adblockers

any music i find is through tiktok or friends, if you want an indie artist go listen to the vanished people they have a really wide range of different song types

I don’t listen to full albums because some songs are not that great even from amazing music artists. If you are able to just hear what yo want to hear people will go for that of certain songs not the whole album , plus these online music services do not carry every song there’s missing songs from certain eras and that’s why people download from websites to find some hard to get songs not available on Spotify or other platforms
